Chapter 639: Yu Zhi Injured

Amidst the sound of firecrackers, the Spring Festival is ushered in again. Every family is beaming with joy, wearing Spring Festival couplets next to each other, and hanging red lanterns.

While eating, Yuxi said: "Another year has passed." Time flies so fast, she will be twenty-six soon.

Yun Qing said with a smile: "One year older again."

When Brother Hao heard this, he immediately retorted: "Father is wrong, he is one year older." Tomorrow, he will be three years old. Mother said that when the first month comes out, he will practice martial arts with his grandfather. Brother Hao is still looking forward to this.

Yun Qing cheerfully patted Hao'er's head and said, "Hao'er is right, she is one year older." One year older is no different from one year older.

The New Year's Eve dinner is another big table full. But during the meal, Zijin's son, Maotuan, began to cry. The nurse hurriedly came over to help take a look, and found that the hairball had urinated.

After eating, Zijin looked at Yuxi and said cautiously: "Princess, I want to go back to the army after the first lunar month." Zijin's pregnancy was more difficult, but Mao Tuan was born at full term. After giving birth, the body has been good. Because Zijin was eager to go back to the barracks, she didn't feed the baby herself, but hired a babysitter instead.

Yu Xi said helplessly: "Let's leave after the hair ball is half a year old!" The hair ball was born at the end of August. As for the birth of Mao Tuan, the happiest thing is Ruonan. Since the hairball was born, Ruonan has been around the hairball every day.

Zijin nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay." Maotuan will be half a year old at the end of February, so it's okay to stay for one more month.

The days passed quickly, and it was the Lantern Festival again in a blink of an eye. With preparations this time, Yuxi has already asked someone to reserve a box. However, the stampede incident last year cast a shadow on Liu'er, even if she reserved a box, Liu'er was unwilling to go.

Yun Qing didn't force it, and said to Yu Xi: "I'll take Brother Hao there!"

Although Yuxi was a little worried that it was not safe outside, Brother Hao was already three years old, so it was time to take him to see the outside world. A boy who is always huddled in the inner house, what can he do.

This night, there was no stampede or assassin, and everything was calm. The next day, Zao Zao cheerfully gave Liu Er the various snacks and gadgets he had bought, and said, "The chaos I ate last night was delicious, but it's a pity you didn't go."

Liu'er has no regrets at all: "I don't know how many people have used the bowls and chopsticks at the stall, so I don't want to eat them. I want to eat chaos, so I just let Mama Bai make it."

Zao Zao shook his head and said, "Mother Bai's cooking chaos is quite delicious, but the taste is different from that made at the stall."

Liu Er said nonchalantly: "It's just chaos, what's the difference?"

Zao Zao explained: "Same bastard, different taste. After you eat it, you will know."

Seeing that the two sisters were arguing, Yuxi said with a smile: "Each has his or her favorite vegetables and radishes, and there is nothing to argue about." Liu'er was raised by Nanny Quan, and she was very particular about food, like clothes, she never Those who don't wear jujube, even if the clothes jujube has never touched. So it's not surprising that she doesn't eat outside food.

Zao Zao immediately skipped this topic, and asked another matter she cared about: "Mother, will it take another half a year for Dad to come back after leaving this time?" Yun Qing was at home, it felt completely different. Apart from other things, seeing her mother with a smile on her face every day makes her feel very comfortable.

Yu Xi was also not sure, and said: "It depends on whether the war goes well or not? If it goes well, he may come back in two or three months." If it doesn't go well, he doesn't know when he can come back.

Yuxi is different from other mothers, she doesn't think that the child is too young to know the dangers outside. On the contrary, she feels that in the situation of the husband and wife, the more the child knows, the better he can protect himself. So Yuxi would often tell a few children about outside affairs, and would also tell a few children about the hardships and difficulties of the husband and wife.

It is also because of this that although Liu'er's temperament is a bit delicate, she is also very filial and obedient.

Without even thinking about it, Zao Zao said: "Mother, Dad will definitely go well this time." If the war goes well, Dad will come back as soon as possible.

Yuxi smiled and said: "Well, it will definitely go smoothly." After the mountain city is captured, there should be no more troops to fight within two years. Yunqing is at home, so she doesn't have to be so tired.

Not only the children were reluctant to leave Yunqing, but Yuxi herself was also reluctant. He couldn't sleep at night, so he dragged Yunqing and chattered for a long time. At this time, Yuxi was no longer the shrewd, formidable and powerful Princess Pingxi in everyone's eyes, but an ordinary woman who worried about her husband.

After listening to the nagging for a long time, Yun Qing said softly: "Don't worry, I'll be back soon." While talking, his hands wandered irregularly on Yu Xi's body.

In the middle of the night, Yuxi was so tired that she fell into a deep sleep. Yunqing didn't call for water, and fell asleep with Yuxi in his arms.

When Yu Xi woke up, it was already daylight. Looking at the emptiness around her, Yu Xi hurriedly called Licorice in, and asked, "Where is the prince?"

Licorice looked at Yuxi's bare fragrant shoulders, lowered her head and said, "My lord left before dawn. The lord gave an order not to allow the servants to wake up the wangfei." Parting is the saddest parting, so Yunqing made a fuss on purpose last night Yuxi was tired, but she didn't want Yuxi to send him off.

It wasn't life and death, so Yuxi didn't say anything more: "Prepare water, I want to take a bath." Her whole body was sticky and uncomfortable.

Licorice said: "Princess, the medicated bath is ready." After taking this medicated bath, there is no need to drink contraceptives.

While soaking in the medicine bath, Licorice asked: "At dawn, the princess and the second princess came over. They were very disappointed after knowing that the prince had left." The two sisters agreed to send Yunqing, but they waited Come here, Dad is gone.

Yuxi nodded, and asked Licorice: "Licorice, you will be twenty this year, and it's time to think about life-long events." Twenty years old is considered older compared to ordinary people.

Licorice shook her hands and said, "Princess, I don't want to marry." She had a psychological shadow, afraid of marrying a bad man.

Yuxi smiled and talked about Zhuzi: "Zhuzi specially entrusted Mr. Xu to tell me about this. Zhuzi has been in the palace for more than seven years. We all know his temper and the details. If you are afraid that you don't want to marry Going outside, Zhu Zi is a good candidate. And if you marry him, you can still work in the mansion."

Licorice would occasionally go to the front yard, so naturally she knew the details of the pillars. Zhuzi is an orphan with no father or mother. After joining the army at the age of thirteen, he made the military camp his home. It's just that Licorice didn't expect Zhuzi to take a fancy to him, and even let Mr. Xu propose marriage to the princess. Thinking of this, Licorice blushed a little.

Seeing that the licorice did not refuse, Yuxi still had shyness on her face, and knew that there was hope for this matter: "The important thing about marriage is your love and my willingness. You think about it carefully. If you think it is good, I will call Mr. Xu back. If not If you want, you have to tell me, and you can't make people wait helplessly."

Licorice thought about the situation of Zhuzi, weighed it in her heart for half a day, and then said: "Princess, if he agrees that I can still work in the palace in the future, I will agree." As long as she stays in the palace, even if her future husband has failed her , she also has a place to settle down.

Yuxi shook her head and said: "Things that are too easy to get, you won't cherish them. Let him show his sincerity before you agree."

Licorice didn't think too much, and said: "I listen to the princess." The princess is so smart, it must be right to listen to her.

Yuxi smiled lightly and said, "If you don't understand anything, you can ask Nanny Quan and Mother Lan. They are old, have a lot of experience, and have rich experience. They will give you good advice." She can give advice, but in terms of details, she doesn't have so much time to guide. After all, she is so busy that she spends all her free time on weekdays on her children.

Licorice lowered her head and said softly, "Okay."

When meeting Xu Wu in the afternoon, Yu Xi said: "I told Licorice about Zhu Zi's matter today, and this girl's experience with Quan Zheng Yu's matter was a bit shadowy. I told her that Zhu Zi was working in the mansion and knew everything about it, so she wouldn't talk to her about it. Like Quan Zhengyu, she didn't refuse outright."

Xu Wu knew that this was difficult: "Then Wangfei, what chance does the pillar have?"

Yu Xi smiled and said: "If you didn't refuse, you gave the opportunity! The rest depends on Zhu Zi's sincerity." After speaking, Yu Xi asked: "What is Zhu Zi's name?"

Xu Wu shook his head and said: "The child wandered to Haocheng from another place. He was only seven years old at the time, and he didn't remember his last name. The name Zhuzi was given by the old Dutou who adopted him. Old Dutou Before he died, I arranged for him to enter the kitchen, thinking that there would be something to eat in the kitchen so that he would not starve to death."

After pondering for a moment, Yu Xi said: "Since his adoptive father's surname is Du, then he will be named Du, and his first name will be Du Zhu." They are all familiar, and Yu Xi doesn't bother to change his name.

Xu Wu smiled and said, "That's what I'm talking about."

Zhuzi was very happy to hear that Licorice did not refuse. Xu Wu patted his head and said: "Don't be too happy, the princess said it depends on your sincerity. If you are not sincere enough, this daughter-in-law will not be able to marry." Marriage is generally late, and there are many unmarried people at this age.

Zhu Zi smirked and said, "If I didn't refuse, it shows that I have hope. If Licorice still refuses in the end, it can only show that I am not good enough."

Seeing this, Xu Wu couldn't help laughing.

Half a month later, Yunqing arrived in the mountain city. Guan Tai told him about the recent situation in Shancheng: "In October last year, Zhou Jinpeng sent people to Yunnan to buy a batch of grain at a high price. At the end of the year, he sent people to Jiangnan to buy grain, but that batch of grain was stolen in Guizhou. The thieves took it away. In the mountain city, food is very scarce now." Although money can make ghosts turn the clock, Luo Kaijiang once offended Guizhou's general soldier. However, Yunnan is originally a land of mountains and forests, and it is short of food. It is unrealistic to buy food in large quantities from it. However, Jiangnan is too far away from the mountain city, and banditry is very serious on the road, so it is impossible to buy grain from Jiangnan. In addition, the mountain city itself is full of hills and forests, with very little land, which cannot supply the consumption of 300,000 troops at all. Therefore, the lack of food in the mountain city was completely within Yunqing's expectation, otherwise he wouldn't have to wait until now.

Yun Qing asked: "There is no food to eat, do the soldiers in the army know about it?" Once the news of food shortage spreads, it will shake the morale of the army, so such things will be kept from the soldiers.

A smile appeared on Guan Tai's face: "Zhou Jinpeng and Zhou Dong are hiding it, but our people let the news out. Now, the hearts of the people in the mountain city are scattered, and the morale of the army is unstable. My lord, it is we who are attacking now. The best time for Shancheng."

Yun Qing shook his head and said: "The mountain city has not yet reached the point of desperation, and we will have to attack the city later." The terrain of the mountain city is difficult to defend and difficult to attack. Although they have problems now, they still have enough ability to defend the city. Even if the siege is successful now, a huge price has to be paid, and this is not what Yunqing wants to see.

Guan Tai has no objection.

In mid-February, Yunqing dispatched 50,000 troops from the northwest and Hubei to Shu. One hundred thousand troops arrived in Shu and rested for several days. On the sixth day of March, Yunqing ordered to attack the city.

When Yuxi heard the shouting voice outside in the study, she knew it was a good news. After a while, Xu Wu walked in from the outside and said, "Princess, the prince has captured the mountain city, and Zhou Jinpeng has fled."

Yuxi took over the battle report, and did not show a smile after reading it: "This time more than 40,000 people died, and more than 10,000 people were seriously injured." After so many preparations, more than 50,000 people died. It can be seen that this How difficult is the mountain city to fight.

Xu Wu immediately stopped laughing, and said after a while: "In war, there will always be casualties." Since there is a war, it is inevitable that people will die.

Naturally, Yuxi knew this truth, and without saying any more, she immediately summoned Tan Tuo, Liu Biyuan and other confidants. The battle has been won, but the aftermath work must be arranged properly, and there must be no mistakes.

After a few days, Xu Wu reported bad news to Yu Xi: "Princess, General Yu was seriously injured. Although he woke up, one arm was disabled." Otherwise, not only an arm may be wasted, but even a life may be lost.

Yuxi's face was a little heavy: "When his injury heals, let him come back. By the way, let Zijin come back together." If Zijin still thinks about making meritorious deeds regardless of Yu Zhi, the relationship between husband and wife may be broken.

Hearing this, Xu Wu said, "This time Yu Zhi was injured, Zi Jin has been by his side for two days and two nights without closing his eyes." . Of course, Zijin's ability to leave the child in the palace was not really lacking in heart, but because she believed that the child would be well taken care of in the palace.

Yu Xi nodded, and said: "That's about the same." After thinking for a while, Yu Xi said: "You have to tell Master Yang about this." You can't hide this kind of thing if you want to hide it, so you might as well tell the truth.

When Master Yang heard that Yu Zhi was missing an arm, he said, "It's good to be around." Ever since Yu Zhi went to the battlefield, Master Yang has always been worried. On this battlefield, if you are not careful, you will die. He can't stop this matter. . Now Yu Zhi only lost his arm, but he is still alive, which is considered a blessing among misfortunes.

Yu Xi said: "After Yu Zhi's injury is healed, I will let their husband and wife come back."

Master Yang nodded and said: "It's good to come back, I don't have to worry about it at home, and Ruonan doesn't have to talk about his parents all the time." The days in the palace are free and easy, and Master Yang has already regarded the palace as his own home.
